Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Poetical Pieces, Sacred and Secular: In Which Are Included Several Poems Specially Designed for Children I Cannot let an opportunity like this pass without staling my reasons for publishing my little book. We are informed in Scripture, by Christ Himself, that no treasure, however small, will increase if hid in a napkin. Well, acting on this principle, I bring my book to the full glare of the light, hoping that by it many a dreary-winter hour will be sweetened and blessed. At the same time, I am quite aware that the critic can find in it many things to criticise, but let him remember that the Poems were composed by one between fourteen and twenty one years of age, who had no college education "to bring to light the higher powers," and who composed many of them merely to pass a leisure hour, or oft When far from the busy crowd, Roving awhile ´mid Nature´s solitude, Musing on Nature´s beauty, and Nature´s God. Taking, then, into account the many disadvantages under which these pieces were written, I hope they may be dealt with leniently, and that my little efforts may be rewarded by an appreciative public.
